As I see it the issue with your integrating example is that area is the correct word for finding “area”. Integrating is not finding the area. The indefinite integral is not about area. The definite integral in dimension 1 has to do with signed area. I don’t think having people ingrained to think finding area is “integration” would be a good thing. Especially since most people don’t take calculus. To your point, people do constantly try to tweak things to make subjects easier to understand and more intuitive. |
